After Care
PRE Treatment Instructions:
1. Protect the area to be treated with SPF 30 or higher sun-block. Sun avoidance and sun protection will reduce the risk of dyschromia (hyper / hypo pigmentation) and epidermal effects. It is recommended to leave:
2-6 weeks before and after a sun holiday if skin is tanned.
2. Area to be treated should be free from:
hair styling products, lotion, make up, deodorant, perfume or sunscreen.
3. Discontinue any irritant topical agents 2-3 days prior to treatment, ie glycolic based products.
4. Following a chemical or microdermabrasion peel it is recommended to leave
1 week prior to, or until skin has fully recuperated (peeling, flaking, erythema has subsided) treatment.
5. Following dermal fillers, Botox or any injection in the treatment site, a minimum of 2 weeks should be left before a laser treatment.
6. Avoid alcohol, aspirin, nsaids (Ibuprofen etc) vitamin E and fish oil supplements for 3 days prior to treatment.
7. Treatments are tolerated without the use of topical anaesthetic.
8. Advise clinician of any dental crowns, caps, braces or other metal dental implants as these areas may be more sensitive and dental rolls may be needed to make the treatment more comfortable.
